That doesnt wash though does it.

Yes, it does.

The argument that Westminster is too remote from Scotland is laughable when AS wants to join the EU.

Physically no, politically yes. Westminster may as well be in Antarctica. The policies of those countries in Europe are a lot closer with those in Scotland the London, where equilibrium is sought.

4Europe is centralised, small economies like Greece dont see much of it. Why would it be different for Scotland.

Imagine a small country with no debt and strong natural resources. Bliss.

Clearly wealth is not distributed equally or we would not have London sitting up on high while the rest of the economy sinks into oblivion

Which is it to be? Or are you feeding the Scottish attitude of entitlement

Once again pooperscoop you are taking a tribal position with your "argument" and entrenching yourself. You make yourself look utterly ridiculous

and a major reason for the UK being in such a sorry state was that the Country was being run by a "canny" Scot.

The debt was generated using systems put in place by Westminster. Clearly not many people in the north believe in those systems.
